Designed for anyone who prepares or signs a Form 990-PF, Exponent Philanthropy’s signature seminar will give you a thorough understanding of the 990-PF, the 5% payout requirement, and expenditure responsibility. Taught by top accountants, the seminar examines the form line-by-line and helps you identify common mistakes, keep your information secure, and keep your trustees out of trouble. You will:
- Review a sample Form 990-PF line-by-line with private foundation tax experts to gain a thorough understanding of the form
- Have the opportunity to review your foundation’s form and ask targeted questions that affect your foundation
- Receive tips for your foundation to make your Form 990-PF more secure and keep trustees out of trouble with the IRS
- Identify mistakes on your foundation’s form and know what to do to fix them
